Backport of #4986. (Draft until merged.)
We have forgotten to bump GO_VERSION in our Dockerfile several times
when doing releases from old release branches, leading to use using
EOL'd Go versions for releases. We should just always use the latest
version when building our release artefacts.
Fixes #4969
